Detailed description

Youth support is our mental health listening service that runs 365 days a year, in the evenings, 5:30-9:30pm. A vital service for those 14+ young people who just need a safe space and a listening ear. We need volunteers who would be happy to play board games or console games with young people and to support the staff in providing this vital service.

About Kingfisher Treasure Seekers

We believe that it is in community that people thrive and grow in all the areas of their lives. Unfortunately, many people fall through the gaps of getting the support they need, and many struggle to get into community life. So we set up this Social Enterprise in 2012 to change this! We now work with over 2000 people, through over 20 activities in Gloucester. Our community includes people with learning disabilities, mental health challenges and complex needs, and young people. We help people come in to community, and then receive support and training through our supportive environment. People can then release their potential, moving closer to becoming the best versions of themselves!
